I recently got a copy of _The Moosewood Cookbook_, which is simply the greatest vegetarian cookbook ever, in the world. Anyway, there is a whole section of suggestions for sammich fillings, and this has become my favorite: You take some peanut butter, and mix in some honey. Then you toast some sesame seeds and stir those in. The proportions are entirely up to the maker of the spread. Put this on some bread, with sliced banana or seedless grapes or raisins or jam or Nutella or just plan, and it’s **delicious**. It’s managed ot ruin straight peanut butter for me. ---

Tragically, it has also ruined my spelling. ---

My favorite sandwich is marble rye bread, cold pastrami (though Reubens are not to be underestimated), extra-sharp cheddar cheese, and russian dressing. One of the best sandwiches I ever had was pastrami, provolone, cucumber and black-olive tapenade on a baguette. \ Oh and I LOVE pepperoncinis. ---

The best sandwich is smoked peppered turkey on sourdough bread. No cheese or sauce or anything, just the turkey and buns. A good breakfast sandwich is a fried egg on lightly toasted sourdough bread woth some butter. I guess I never realised how much I liked sourdough. ---

Rye bread with real leftover roast beef, raw onions, tomatoes, swiss cheese, mayo, mustard, Louisiana Hot sauce, and black pepper. Toast the sandwich till the cheese is melted and enjoy. If I am feeling in the mood for a vegitarian sandwich I will fry up some onions in some butter, add some basil and oregano and cook till the onions are almost ready. Then I will add some sliced tomatoes (the standard beach ball type are the best for this because they will stand up to some cooking) and cook them until the tomatoes warm upi. You do not want to cook them through or they turn to mush, you need some body to them. Then add a healthy slug of hot sauce and stand back…the vinegar will vaporize and a snootful of that will clean your sinuses out for a month. Put on toast and enjoy. You can add cheese to it but it’s quite good (and gooey) the way it is. Keith ---

All I have in my refrigerator is three different flavors of pudding. Plus, I have no bread even if I did WANT a pudding sandwich(which I DON’T). Even if I went out and bought some bread(which I’m too lazy to do) or borrowed some from my roommate, I would have to drag out my iron and ironing board to toast it. WHY, you ask? The universtiy policy prohibits the use of toasters, hot plates, coffee pots, and any kitchen appliances with open heating coils, in the dorms for fear that we might burn the place down. > We are, however, permitted to smoke in our rooms. \*\* Ah, the perils of Baker Huger! 🙂 ---

Today my lunch is ‘Boar’s Head’ brand Rare Roast Beef on a fresh sub roll with smoked provolone, Artichoke Hearts, and Mayo from my favorite Italian take-out joint. A Number 5. Pretty Good, but I’ve had better. The best thing about it is the cannoli I have for desert 🙂 Give me a striaght up grilled cheese with a bowl of good vegi soup on the side and I’m sated. I also like the waffle sandwiches they serve at Waffle House (what can ya do, I’m from the South). ---

It is my understanding that nobody under 35 ever eats a sandwich on dark rye. I am the exception. Dark or light rye(caraway if they have it) Pastrami or turkey pastrami Havarti Mayo Dijon - must be dijon Lettuce Tomato Sprouts Salt and pepper ---
